"Mother!"

Zhang Goudan came to his thatched house, and saw his mother sitting in front of the door sewing clothes, but his tears couldn't stop staying, and he pounced forward with a sad voice.

"Kid!"

Mother Zhang heard the voice of the dog, raised her head, looked at the dogan wrapped in gauze on her face, couldn't believe it for a while, hugged the dogan tightly, gently touched the bloodshot gauze, her hands were trembling, and her eyes were already red and swollen, but the tears had dried up.

"Kid, it's good to come back, it's good to come back!"

Mother Zhang couldn't speak, holding the dog's egg, just kept muttering, it's good to come back, it's good to come back...

"Mother, the child is not filial, so my mother is worried!"

The dog knelt on his knees, kept kowtowing, his forehead gradually bumped, and looked at his mother, whose eyes were already swollen from crying, and fell into deep self-blame. If it weren't for the fact that she was snatched by the bandits, her mother would not have washed her face with tears day and night.

Mother Zhang lifted the dog egg, looked at the dog egg, and said happily: "Dog, yesterday the two stunned people in our village came back, saying that Liu Degongzi broke Hutou Mountain, let them go home, and gave each of them some money and food, let them go home and have a good birthday, I asked them your whereabouts, they said that you escaped, I am afraid that you were eaten by the tiger in the mountain, for the mother did not believe it, and the two stunned they quarreled a few words, and waited for you to come back at home, I said that my dog is blessed with a great life, how can it be eaten by the tiger?" Do you remember the old way of coming to our village two years ago? said that you have a deep source of blessings, and you will be a great official in the future! ”

Zhang Goudan smiled bitterly, recalling the experience of the previous days, but it was like a dream, "Mother, I did almost let the tiger eat it." ”

"Don't talk yet, let my mother see the wound on your face, what is this! It's all broken, how can I find you a daughter-in-law in the future! ”

......

“... That's the way it is, but because my injuries are inflamed and I have been recuperating in the barracks for a few days, I will come back, otherwise, I should have come back sooner than the second stunned people. Zhang Goudan held the big bowl handed by his mother and ate the rice porridge that Zhang's mother had just made.

"It's still delicious porridge made by my mother!"

Zhang's mother was terrified when she listened to it, and she didn't believe it: "Is there really a man who killed the big insect on the mountain?" Liu Degongzi really asked you to be a personal guard? Dog, my mother has never read, don't lie to my mother. ”

Zhang Goudan nodded affirmatively, "Mother, how could I lie to you?" Hurry up and pack up, let's leave tomorrow at dawn and go to Dongyu City. ”

"What a hurry! You let your mother go to the village and tell me that you are going to be a personal guard for Liu Degongzi. ”

“......”

Three days later, Liu De returned to Dongyu City and rewarded the three armies, including the generals Yan Nan, Guan Yu, Zheng Fu, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, etc., and the staff officer Jian Yong, all of whom were rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, ten thousand pieces of money, ten horses of silk cloth, etc., so I will not go into details.

Liu De returned to Dongyu City, and handed over all military and political affairs to Zhang Tianlang and Chen Shuo and others who came to greet him, and he didn't care about it, and now he is like an arrow, and he wants to go back to the house to have a good rest, and look at his sister-in-law, Little Butterfly, Xi'er, and that rude and lovely Cui Ying.

Xu Hu Dianwei and the two escorted Liu De back to Liu's mansion with five hundred guards, and Liu De got off the Lu horse, and the servants took the horses away and took care of them.

"Lord!"

A familiar figure came to greet him, but his voice was excited.

"Haha! Shen Feng, you have been asked to guard the mansion these days, but it has been hard for you. Liu De saw that it was Shen Feng, and couldn't help but pat Shen Feng's shoulder vigorously and praised.

It turned out that Liu De felt that the defense of the Liu Mansion was too poor, and Shen Feng was loyal and reliable, so he appointed Shen Feng as the chief and led 50 people to guard the mansion in order to make sure that everything was perfect.

Shen Feng was moved when he heard Liu De's praise, but he said: "The last general still hopes to follow the lord and conquer the thieves!" ”

When Liu De heard this, his heart was hot, I have such a loyal and brave soldier, why worry about a big event, "Okay, when you have the opportunity, you will return to the army and rebel for me!" ”

"Yes, my lord! Zheng Feng had seen the two captains. ”

Zheng Feng was extremely happy when he heard Liu De's reply, although guarding Liu Mansion represented Liu De's trust in him, and there was no danger, he still wanted to go to the battlefield, and the battlefield was where a good man should go. Then he saw Xu Hu and Dian Wei, and hurriedly gave up, but he already knew that the lord had recruited another tiger general to serve as the captain of the guard.

Xu and Dian also stepped forward to return the salute.

"Second uncle, second uncle, you're back, butterflies miss you!" Little Liu Jia pounced on Liu De's arms like a cheering magpie.

Liu De held the little butterfly in his arms and threw it up vigorously, making the little butterfly giggle, and the crisp laughter was as pleasant as a bell, but Liu De's tiredness was swept away by the laughter of the little butterfly, and his mind was clear. But I want to protect this beauty, Liu De secretly decided.

"Little butterfly, is it fat again, the second uncle can't hold it anymore." Liu De laughed.

"Second uncle, are you talking nonsense, the little butterfly is not fat?" The little butterfly didn't follow, the little palm stretched out to Liu De's armpit, and he was about to tickle Liu De, Liu De hurriedly begged for mercy and made a bunch of promises, so that the little butterfly turned his anger into joy.

Liu De put down the little butterfly, and saw his sister-in-law and Xi'er standing behind the little butterfly smiling, Liu De stepped forward and said, "Boy, meet your sister-in-law, but you are worried about your sister-in-law." ”

Qian was still dressed in white, without powder, but there were tears in his eyes, he helped Liu De up, and said with a smile: "Xiaode has grown up, repelled the 100,000 army of Donghu, and now he has eliminated the Hutou Mountain bandits, if my grandfather knew that Xiaode was so powerful, he would definitely be very happy, and your brother would also be happy for you..."

"Boy, you will not teach them to disappoint!"

Qian finally couldn't hold back, tears ran down his cheeks from the corners of his eyes, Qian hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief, looked at Liu De, who was worried, but laughed, "You are more and more like your brother now, okay, let's go back, what are you doing outside the mansion!" With that, he took the lead and walked back.

Liu De looked at his sister-in-law's back in a daze, but he didn't know what to say, he felt that the corner of his clothes was being pulled, it was a little butterfly, and the little butterfly was worried: "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

Liu De touched the little butterfly's little head: "It's okay, your mother is happy, see that your second uncle is so capable!" ”

"That's it, the second uncle is amazing, just like my father..."

The little butterfly was also happy, holding a leaf in her hand that she didn't know when, and chased after her mother, and suddenly thought of something, turned her head and shouted to Liu De: "Second uncle, don't forget to accompany me to go shopping!" ”

Liu De smiled: "Don't worry, the second uncle can't forget it!" But it was a pain in my heart, the little butterfly had not seen her father since she was born, and it was difficult for her sister-in-law to pull the little butterfly up alone, so that the little butterfly was so happy and happy, without a trace of trouble.

"Childe," Xi'er said on the side, "Madame sometimes weeps secretly! ”

Liu De was speechless: "Sister-in-law, I miss my brother, let's go, let's go in." ”

"Yes!"
